This delightful hardcover edition of “Every Day is Making Day” by Sara Triana Mitchell offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Gullah people, a distinctive African-American community residing in the coastal regions of South Carolina and Georgia. Published in the late 20th century, this book captures the essence of Gullah folklore, traditions, and way of life through a collection of stories and anecdotes passed down through generations.

Mitchell, herself a member of the Gullah community, weaves a tapestry of tales that celebrate the resilience, wisdom, and vibrant spirit of her people. From tales of trickster characters like Brer Rabbit to accounts of everyday life on the Sea Islands, this volume offers a unique window into a culture that has preserved its African roots while adapting to the American South.

Collectors and readers alike will appreciate the opportunity to immerse themselves in the captivating oral traditions and cultural richness of the Gullah community, a testament to the enduring power of storytelling in preserving and sharing a people’s history and identity.
